What a mess!
Qi Yue's lips twitched, unable to utter a word for quite some time.
This man... was he actually spreading rumors now?
She had agreed to set aside some time in the evening, but she never said anything about having dinner together.

Accompanied by a soft and pleasant call, Zhao Xiyan had already approached her.
Seeing this, Nanny Zhang immediately reported that the banquet was ready and then cheerfully excused herself.
In the vast courtyard, suddenly only the two of them remained.
"Yueyue, it has been a long time since we sat together. You wouldn't blame me for taking the initiative, would you?"
Zhao Xiyan's beautiful eyes gazed at her, tinted with a hint of eager anticipation.
Qi Yue pursed her lips.
Given the circumstances, what could she say?
"No, this is fine. I also have many questions for you. Let's eat first."
"Good."
Over the past few days, Qi Yue's state of mind had changed time and again; now at last, it was serene.
